Public Statements

Fellow Citizens of Washington State,

I am Brad Klippert. As your next Senator I vow to protect that which has made America the greatest and most powerful nation on earth - traditional family values, personal safety, national security, social responsibility, and economic opportunity. Our nation is great because "God has truly blessed America" and because of hard working Americans everywhere. Too often our political leaders have made choices based on what is popular or most expedient instead of what is best and right. I believe there is an absolute standard of values and morals that should guide our elected representatives during the decision-making process. As your Senator, you can trust that I will not waver from this standard of guidance.

The traditional family unit is a fundamental building block of our nation's history, and the seeds of America's social instability have been cultivated by our neglect of this ideal. The lives of the unborn, the disabled, and the elderly are precious and should be protected. Furthermore, every citizen deserves the right to pursue success - not simply through government entitlements, but as a result of opportunity, hard work and perseverance. Personal rights and personal responsibility/accountability must go hand in hand.

Now more than ever our nation is in need of a strong national defense. I am committed to keeping our schools, our communities, and our nation safe. American citizens must continue to enjoy the freedom that security provides; that freedom which sets our nation apart from all others.

My background as a public servant - 18 years of military service and a career in law enforcement - has given me the experience needed to make tough decisions and hard choices. I will not betray the public's trust when casting my votes. I will stay true to those values for which I am elected.

It has been said, "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything". I stand for and want the best for all America. Together we can make this great nation even better and experience God's richest blessings.
